The settlement was first mentioned in a document dated 1291. It received its town charter in 1374.

Jewish community

[edit]

Before the Second World War and the Holocaust the town was a shtetl.

Jews began to settle in Kamieńsk in the 18th century. The earliest Jewish tombstone in the Kamieńsk cemetery dates from 1831. In the 1870s the town selected Israel Stieglitz as its rabbinic leader. He served as its chief rabbi for over 40 years and died in 1921. His son, Pinchas Stieglitz, was selected as his successor and served in that capacity for a short time. There were three synagogues in the city. In 1900, there were 1,064 Christians and 787 Jews in Kamieńsk. By 1917 the Jewish population had grown to 1,163. The principle occupations of the Jewish people were tailoring, shoe-making and small trade. Pinchas Stieglitz and most of his family were murdered in the Holocaust during the German occupation.
